Weezl how did your dad do?

If you tell me how to put all the recipes in one post I am quite happy to do thisXXXX

Since this thread is getting so long, why not start a part 2 thread, Weezl grabs the first 3 or 4 slots then artybear, perhaps then NP2PI, Lesley, and others who are in charge of other areas?

I was thinking it might be time for a Part 2 thread - as this one is getting long as well.

So - I'll second that idea above and keeping "slots" at the beginning of Part 2 thread for specific things - like a list of recipe links.

**********************

On different topic - think we're already well on the way to finalising the equipment list - a little bit of "fine-tuning" later and it should be ready.

You are losing me already:o, not you ceridwen but all the talk about putting things in different places. Should I be writing my recipes somewhere or just report on recipes already on here?
Help!
Or give me a specific job please?

And if you start a new thread can you make a huge link on a page on here to help me find it, please.:o

Don't worry poohbear we'll not change anything without lots of warning and we can't lose our best testing soldiers

I have just uploaded pics and recipe of my chicken and onion pie with suet crust pastry.

When Aless/IOIWE/ whoever would like to, have a minute, then a nutrition breakdown of 1/4 of the recipe would be fab

Arty when my brain awakes in the morning I shall write out how to do an index. MANYMANY thanks for that offer

ps sorry again to everyone that I can't do an index, I'm just juggling a lot of balls here at the moment and need to keep the balance between on here and real life. Hope that's not off-putting!xx

artybear

No worries Weezl- I have a quiet few days coming up (well I shall be researching in the library so can multi task)!

Im off to Cardiff on Thur (so will wave to you and ISOM from the bay) but up untill then I cant get on with the indexing.

XXXXXXXX

weezl74

we shall wave too

think I need to turn in now chaps, thank you all so much for your ongoing efforts

Lesley, It's a bit short notice I know but shall we try some spreadsheet chat tomorrow around 10?

Or alternatively, you name a time and I'll try for it

Just popping on quickly before I shut down before bed, I was wondering do you still need volunteers for testing the receipes? Or do you have enough now? I will check tomorrow in case you think I was being awkward by not answering or replying..

Hello Everyone:wave:

Sorry for not helping much the last week-I have been busy and tired (dont know how you do it Weezl)

I am reading but just dont want you all to forget me lol-im just the quiet one in the corner at the mo.

If anyone needs me to do anything just shout-I will see it. Next week I will make sure I test something good (just not the sweetcorn )

Hey if i can test meat and fruit together you should do the sweetcorn lol remember its for a good cause:rotfl:

Am I right in thinking there is no survey sheet for the veggie burgers ?

Not yet
But I have a couple of days off work, so hope to get another half dozen or so done on Tuesday

I think I am going to try and get to grips with the googledocs malarky as well, so that everyone can see the survey results, as this may help somewhat....
If anyone has any googledocs tips I would be very grateful

Will complete the poll once done, if it's still relevant?

I would say YES
I think the more testers the better, as it gives a broader spectrum of results, and helps identify trends/likes/dislikes for each recipe.

And at this point, I have no words of wisdom or the answer
Just another shamless copy

If any consolation I think it's because we're victims of our own success and no-one realised how quickly this would grow and fly!

Also, I would like to add....
There does seem to be quite alot of people, sitting/standing, and waiting patiently, arms out stretched, to catch any balls that you may not catch yourself

Hi there

I have been reading along and loving every minute of it.. haven't tried any recipes yet as I have probably the fussiest OH in the world who is hopeless at trying new things or things he has decided he won't like!!

However, I am good at lists and admin type stuff so if you need things collating or indexing etc then please feel free to pm me. I AM going to try some of the cake type recipes as soon as I can pass them by his lordship and put them in the meal plan and will of course fill in the questionairre afterwards.

I can see you already have volenteers for most things so if I cannot be of any use to you then of course I understand and I still want to say how wonderful you all are and what a great thread it is.
